The University of Texas at El Paso Top Questions

Describe the students at your school.

Esteban

I would describe my peers at UTEP as hard working and determined to succeed at their school work, whether a student will ask a professor for aid, works while going to school, or use the various resources availble to the students to help them succeed, each students always seems willing to do their best and graduate from UTEP.

Julio

The students at the University of Texas at El Paso are very kind due to its Hispanic and Latino influence by helping a stranger that needs assistance but there are also those students who have to much Latin culture and would rather speak their own language in class then speak common English this is something I do not applaud as it tries to swade American pride with Mexican pride and most opening ceremonies have this ideology by having a mariachi band play while opening a event. This concerns me but I hope this campus doesn't forget it was founded in Texas and not Mexico. As proof the University has banned smoking cigaretts on campus due to these groups I speak about always gathering speaking Spanish and smoking cigarets.

At this university you can find a variety or people with different backgrounds. Many students that come from different races, religious backgrounds, and social or economic backgrounds. At this school there would be no student that feels out of place simply because there is a mix of everything. Most students have their own unique sense of style which you can see everyday as you walk on campus. Usually it is only the athletes that go to school dressed in their pajamas or ready for workouts other thatn that everyone expresses themselves throguh their clothing. El Paso has the honor of being the home for many military families which allows for there to be a variety of people attending this university. Different people that are constantly interacting with each other no matter their differences.

Elissa

Most of my classmates are people who want to be someone and who want to achieve their goal. You do sometimes get those students who are not in class because they want to but because they were told too. But The students in my classes are very nerdy and very friendly; when you need help many offer to help you and when students help one another they give you a better understanding.

Anna

Unfortunately, because this city is predominantly Mexican, there are times when the students assume and in a way, demand that everyone attending should speak Spanish because of location. Some students seem terribly afraid of change and would rather be uncomfortable and unhappy in their every day routines rather than question the "wrongs" of life. A bit narrow-minded and a "I gotta do what I gotta do to protect myself and mi familia," again, it is unfortunate, but there is always hope for change in my mind.
